Pre-recorded intro by director Gabriel Martins.
November 11 & 12 | In this tender and warm film the Martins, a lower-middle-class Brazilian family of optimistic dreamers must depend on one another while they manage the individual struggles, and the pressures of the world - including the election of right-wing president Jair Bolsonaro. A standout at this year’s Sundance Film Festival and Brazil’s submission to the Academy Award for Best International Feature Film consideration, MARS ONE is a quietly powerful film about the bonds of family, about what it means to dream and to fall in love, and how - even in the most challenging of times - home is where the heart beats. Pre-recorded intro by director Gabriel Martins.
